Grilled Breakfast Pizza

(from castro15’s recipe box)

Categories: Grilling

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 lb. refrigerated pizza dough, at room temp
  • 8 oz. bulk breakfast sausage
  • 2 bell peppers (1 red, 1 green), chopped
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 cups frozen shredded hash browns, thawed and squeezed dry
  • 3/4 tsp kosher salt
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella
  • 6 large eggs
  • Chopped fresh chives, for topping

Directions

  1. Preheat a grill to medium high. Brush an upside-down sheet pan with 2 tbsp olive oil. Shape the pizza dough into an 11×14-inch rectangle and place on the oiled side of the pan.

  2. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet on the grill. Add the sausage and cook, breaking up the meat into pieces and stirring occasionally, until no longer pink, 4 to 5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove to a plate. Add the bell peppers and onion to the skillet and cook, stirring, until the veggies soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil, the hash browns, 1/2 tsp salt and black pepper. Cook, stirring, until the hash browns soften and start turning light golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the hash brown-veggie mixture to the plate with the sausage. Remove the skillet from the grill.

  3. Carefully slide the dough off the pan and onto the grill. Cook, uncovered, until bubbles start to form on top and the bottom is marked, 3 to 4 minutes. Use a large spatula to flip the dough, marked-side up, onto the upside-down sheet pan.

  4. Sprinkle the mozzarella all over the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Top evenly with the hash brown-vegetable mixture and sausage. With the back of a large spoon, make 6 small wells in the toppings and carefully crack an egg into each well. Slide the pizza off the pan and back onto the grill. Cover and cook until cheese is melted and the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 12 minutes.

  5. Remove the pizza to a cutting board. Season the eggs with the remaining 1/4 tsp salt and black pepper. Garnish with chives.
